J U D G M E N T

¶53

The petitioners, seven in number, have filed this writ petition on 8.1.2010 mainly seeking a direction restraining respondents 1, 2 and 4 and their men and agents from installing a telecommunication tower in the property of the fourth respondent or anywhere near the Vizhinjam street, until they are allowed to do so, by a competent civil court. The pleadings and materials on record disclose that though the first respondent was granted a building permit on 17.8.2009 to put up a telecommnication tower in the lands belonging to the fourth respondent, that permit was cancelled by order dated 13.11.2009 issued by the Secretary of the Grama Panchayat. The first respondent thereupon filed Appeal No.1037 of 2009 in the Tribunal for Local Self Government Institutions. The Tribunal has by order passed on 23.1.2010 allowed the appeal, set aside the impugned order and restored the building permit issued to the first respondent.

¶54

The writ petition was admittedly presented at a time when the building permit did not operate. In view of the order passed by the Tribunal for Local Self Government Institutions restoring the building permit, the reliefs prayed for by the petitioners cannot be granted. If the petitioners are aggrieved by the order passed by the

¶57

Tribunal for Local Self Government Institutions, it is for them to challenge the same in other appropriate proceedings. Without prejudice to that right, the writ petition is dismissed. The contentions of both sides are kept open.
